This morning CBS Amazing Race kicked off filming right here in Gloucester. Here is a screen shot of video I’m uploading right now of the different teams being transported to the outer harbor where they will eventually land at Eastern Point Yacht Club and start the entire race from what I’m told. Pleanty of Video and pics coming later today.

Yep you heard it here first WOOT!

Found out that Neobie in Chinese means "f*king awesome"! No, really. Look it up!

Based on a report from a friend of mine who flew out of Logan Airport today, they are flying out of Boston, headed to London. The first teams to arrive all went to the American counter and were booked on AA Flight 108, which leaves tonight at 7:15 pm.

I accidentally call it the Great Race in the video but I know itís called The Amazing Race.

You can see the teams dressed in different colors walking down the gangway to board the fishing boats at the State Fish Pier. Then they head out single file past the historic Paint Factory to Gloucesterís inner harbor where they passed by The Greasy Pole and Hammond Castle en route back to The Eastern point Yacht club where they disembarked and the race begins. On East Main Street one of the teams stopped the Mrs and her friends who just got out of a run-fit class for directions to Bostonís Logan Airport. She had to sign a release stating that she may be on TV.

One team stopped while in traffic on East Main St and rolled down their window. It was a good looking man and woman who asked how to get to Logan. When the car stopped two cameramen popped out of SUV which was right behind the man and woman race team who were rolling seperately in a Smart Car. The cameramen and a microphone were shoved in the Mrs face and when she replied how to get to Logan the team told her not to speak to anyone else. Then they signed the releases and were off.
